Wouldn't know to be honest, still using my real account as I have never been banned from etsy.

It's a good site for what I sell. But ebay is better. And having multiple streams of income is always better than one.

DD payments are BACs so take a few days. It makes so much sense that they would prefer a card be linked. Funds can be pulled from the card instantly. It better protects them.

current account or automatic payment method to cover the remaining amount.
• These refund payments will appear as a new line item in your transaction report as a transfer, next to the corresponding order.

Seems you just need to have enough in your “available balance” to cover refunds to me - a lot of pointless fussing imo - same like PayPal withdraw 70% leave 30% to cover fees and refunds

That works best for eBay also if you think about it

Again just my opinion from the above quote

Good luck to all, see you all the 15th when the fireworks really go off :D

As I understand it the whole balance gets transferred - weekly or daily

That's my understanding

Just got a email saying the dead line has moved to a later date of 27th July.

It hasn't moved.

"This is your last reminder to register for managed payments.

Remember, your account is scheduled to be enabled in late July - please register by July 15 for eBay to manage your payments. If you miss the registration deadline, starting from 27/07/2020, we will start to restrict your ability to create new listings.

Register now in three simple steps:

1. Verify your information
2. Provide a bank account - either existing or new
3. Keep selling as normal"

To my understanding, you need to be registered by the 15th to receive your payout by the 27th.

Guess we're going to be in for a ride. We'll have to see how it plays out and find ways as we go along

[frustr8ed]

Has anybody been rejected for MP, i.e. their Bank Statement or ID was rejected?

[mudrat26]

Did the person who changed his stealth into his own also change his DOB on the managed payment screen? how would that work if you have x2 stealths?

[aniseed]

Often when a dd fails, they give the response along the lines of "this may be because of a lack of funds..." so if you have a mismatched name or savings account, it may be that it works and ebay just assumes you had no funds which caused it to bounce. Not sure where that will leave the account. On the other hand I had a direct debit actually come through from paypal once despite a name mismatch. The bank never used to really check.

Or maybe not and we're all doomed.

I uploaded my bank statement and it came back they needed more personal info so have now uploaded my passport so wonder if I will be ok

I literally had the same thing as this.

"we couldn't verify some personal details you've provided" but if everything looks good you'll need to upload your photo ID, so we can verify you."

The same jack did you sort yours ?

Waiting for a response, I've uploaded the ID.

[StealthHarry]

Keep us updated boys,

It does seem that stealth with MP is possible there is a glimmer of hope, how long that lasts only time will tell us.

[james_112233]

I was contacted by a category specialist that wanted me to enrol in a one to one 3 month program where they will help me grow my business on ebay

I google searched / linked in the guy and it was legit

This is using my stealth account

I won't divulge any more information as I don't want to be identified but there you go

[blondeconan]

Can't you just deposit some funds into the SAVINGS ACCOUNT that is linked and leave enough to cover any potential refunds ?

[e2free]

Anyone tried with International ID on ebay uk or usa managned payment when they request for ID?

[kingpot12]

Just in relation to being accepted onto MP (not bank mismatches)

If people are truthfully tweaking their stealth Accounts to match their real ID details.

Adyen are a) associating this stealth account to the one real person, (YOU) by a soft credit check, and therefore further accounts in that name, using the same ID, must be compromised...

or b) They are NOT correctly identifying people, from a known database, but deem the tweaked ID's and bank statement as sufficient and that the person must be real.


If my logic is unsound, I'd like to know more...

[digzz]

Can we get a total on here of how many have been approved using stealth details and how many have failed. I feel like this would give us a bigger picture on how things are going.

I have seen comments on an ebay seller facebook page stating some people who have signed up have now noticed that ebay have set up a direct debit on their bank account.

For those who have signed up with miss-matched names that will be interesting.
